Chapter 1548
A week later… Nolan and Maisie returned to Bassburgh first, while Waylon and Colton stayed back in Octavia to
accompany their sister, spending the winter break together. Daisie brought a small cake to the gallery to look for
Violet. She walked up to the door of the studio and saw Violet sitting in front of a drawing board, drawing a portrait
with a pencil.
She tiptoed into the gallery, stood behind her, and looked at each of the outlines drawn onto the canvas, forming a
simple draft of the person she was drawing. And as she continued, the person’s outlines became clearer. Daisie
laughed out loud. “Aunt Violet, are you drawing Uncle Jackie?” Violet’s hand shook, and she looked back at Daisie
and was surprised by her. “Who told you that I’m painting your Uncle Jackie?” Daisie blinked. “But it looks quite like
him.” “Nonsense, I’m not drawing him…” Violet’s gaze shifted back onto the drawing canvas, but her hand that was
holding the pencil froze.

‘Why is this happening? I clearly wasn’t drawing Jackie. Daisie must’ve influenced me. That’s why it looks like him.’
She picked up the pencil, revised the outlines, and could not help but mutter, “This shouldn’t look like him anymore,
right?” Daisie sat at the side, supporting her head in her palms, and smiled. “Aunt Violet, do you miss Uncle Jackie
that much?”
Violet choked on her own words, put down the pencil, and stopped drawing. “Why would I?” “How could I possibly
be thinking about Jackie? I have nothing to do with him.
“Besides, he hasn’t shown up for a week after that incident, so he’s probably regretting it too Thank God we didn’t
get it on the other night. Otherwise, it would be even more awkward now.
Daisie supported her chin. “In my dad’s words, is your duplicity playing a huge role when you’re denying that?”
“Daisie, you brat! I treat you so kindly and what I get in return is you making fun of me?” ‘She actually said I’m
being duplicitous to myself. This girl is surely doing this on purpose! Daisie handed her the small cake in her hand.
“Take this. Uncle Jackie asked me to bring this to
you.”
She was startled. “He asked you to bring this to me?”
Daisie nodded.
Violet took the small cake from her. It could be seen that the top layer of the cake was covered in chocolate
matcha.
She opened the box and took a bite. Daisie asked with a grin, “Is it delicious?” Violet nodded. “It’s okay.” She smiled
and squinted. “Actually, I’m the one who bought it.” Violet was rendered speechless. Daisie chuckled even more
happily. “Aunt Violet, your expression from just now looked like you were looking forward to it.” Violet put the cake
on the table and got up. “Okay, I’m not going to finish this anymore. Hmph!”

out his hand and wrapped it around her waist subconsciously. She raised her head and was stunned by the first
thing that caught her eyes. Jackie took a glance at the cake on the table. “Don’t you like desserts?” Before Violet
could react, Daisie let off a mischievous chuckle. “You’re the one who bought it, so it’s impossible for Aunt Violet to
dislike it.”
Jackie laughed. “Oh really?”
Daisie squeezed out of the door and said with a smile. “Uncle Jackie, since I’ve completed my mission, I’ll take my
leave first.” She ran very quickly. Violet discovered something and pushed him away. “You two are so childish! Is it
fun for you to pull a prank on me?”
“Since when are we pulling a prank on you?” Jackie folded his coat and fixed his gaze on her face. “Daisie told me
that girls like desserts, so I asked her to bring a cake for you.” ‘Daisie, this quirky little girl, was indeed only mocking
her, but without her mockery, how could I get to witness her panicked appearance?’ Violet turned her face away.
“She told me that she’s the one who bought it. That’s why I ate it.” “Oh really?” He smirked. But I heard it all.”
